Answer:

Isosceles triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

There are three different kinds of triangle: equilateral, isosceles, and scalene.

-Equilateral triangles are triangles where all 3 sides and angles are the same. (First image)

-Isosceles triangles are triangles where 2 of the sides and angles are the same, while the third side and angle is different. (Second image)

-Scalene triangles are triangles where all 3 sides and angles are different. (Third image)

In the case of this triangle, two of the sides have the same 52 degree angle. They would also have the same side lengths, and <u>thus be a isosceles triangle. </u>

Hope this helps! :3

write a linear equation that intersects y=x^2 at two points. Then write a second linear equation that intersects y=x^2 at just o

Liula [17]

We know that $y = x^2$ is a parabola, concave up, with vertex in the origin $(0,0)$

So, we may use three horizontal lines for our purpose: any horizontal line above the x axis will intersect the parabola twice. The x axis itself intersects the parabola once on the vertex, while any horizontal line below the x axis won't intercept the parabola.

Here's the examples:

The horizontal line $y = 4$ intercepts the parabola twice: the system $y = x^2,\ y = 4$ is solved by $x^2=4 \implies x = \pm 2$
The horizontal line $y=0$ intercepts the parabola only once: the system is $y=x^2,\ y=0$ which yields $x^2=0\implies x=0$ which is a repeated solution
The horizontal line $y=-5$ intercepts the parabola only once: the system is $y=x^2,\ y=-5$ which yields $x^2=-5$ which is impossible, because a squared number can't be negative.
